Δ Assassin 44: Sayuri's PoV Δ
The next day, instead of going to my classroom by the mountains, I head towards a vacant room where I will be meeting the sports club members. I already told Karma about my schedule for the week and he's upset. According to him, he won't be seeing me throughout the day. Well, we always see each other at home. That's probably enough time for us.
For Kimiko, she's been busy lately. I would always find her in library reading books that I don't know. She also mentioned that she'll return back to her home just for a few days. I don't know when but she's planning to go out soon. That's what she said.
Gakushuu mentioned about talking to foreign people today about their fight against Class E. It was an unfair game for me. But I know my friends could manage that. I contacted the people he wanted to talk to today. Luckily, they all approve to my request. It's not that hard actually. I also send the details to Isogai about their competition. We were right that Boutaoshi will be their event.
I head to the first floor room beside the faculty room. All members are probably there already so I open the doors and drop my notebook on the table.
"Good morning, everyone. Sorry I'm late. As usual." I laugh sheepishly. They greeted back with a simple good morning. I started discussing my plans for the Athletic Festival and what games we could play for it. They also gave suggestions which are good so I mix it up with some of my ideas.
I also assigned some people for the decoration, program, food, technical, and cleaning committee. We then started planning what could be the flow of the upcoming festival.
After my short meeting with them, I asked them to stay and talk among themselves for a moment while I go to Gakushuu. I'm a busy person today. Can't be helped.
I knock on the Class A's door before entering. There are 4 huge men in front of them. These are the people whom I emailed last night.
"Yu-chan, thanks for contacting them." Gakushuu gave me a smile while I smiled back. I look over the four gentlemen who are looking down at me.
Yes, down.
I'm too small...
"Ah, you must be, Sayuri? The girl who contacted us last night?" A tall guy with a hat said.
"Yes, thank you for accepting my request to you. I appreciate it." I give him a small smile.
"I like your accent. It's soft and smooth."
"Thank you." I also greeted the rest in their own languages. The guy I talked to was probably living in Texas? I don't know. I just recognize the tone.
The guy next to him is a Korean followed by Portuguese, and lastly French. I'm glad I knew a little about their language. It wasn't that hard to study languages around the world anyways. Irina's a pro in this kind of field.
Days after, it's the start of the festival. Today is the only day that I could see my classmates again. Finally! After a stressful week, I'm going to go back to our class again.
While checking if the festival is going smoothly, I saw my classmates sitting by the chairs cheering for our representatives, Masayoshi, Yada, Kayano, and Hara. I walk towards them with a bright smile.
"Hello everyone!" I cheerfully greeted.
"Sayuri-chan! I miss you so much!" Kayano jump on me making me giggle.
"You're so busy these past few days." Megu said.
"She's not even responding to me at the house." Karma pouted. "I could always see her typing on her laptop or writing something on her notebook."
"YOU'RE LIVING IN ONE HOUSE!?"
"Nurufufufu..."
"W-Wait! I can explain!" I was blushing madly at this point. "Mom offered Karma to stay at our home since his parents are not around just yet."
"And I am staying in her room~!"
"WHAT!?"
"We're not in one bed if that's what your thinking!" I exclaimed. They all sighed in relief.
"But we had fun each night." He added their eyes widened once more as if they are going to faint.
"NO!" I screech. "We're not doing any funny things!"
"But playing nintendo switch is fun." He pointed out.
Oh...
They calm down a bit as Korosensei is writing something down in his notebook.
"By the way, I emailed, Isogai-kun about Class A's foreign representatives isn't it?" I asked. The boys nodded slight taken a back on how huge these people are.
"Don't be intimidated! I know you can do it!" I cheered.
"Do you know those people?" Isogai asked.
"No, Gakushuu knows them, though. I just emailed them last night." I answered.
"Why are you following that bastard's order!?" Terasaka snarled. "You should've not contacted them instead!"
"I'm still an assistant of the president, Terasaka-kun. It is my job to follow the president's orders no matter how bad it is." I answered calmly.
"Sayuri-chan is right, Terasaka-kun. It's her duty to do so." Kayano said. I mentally thank her and she seems to understand my expression because of her small smile.
Well, another reason is to keep my identity hidden.
"Korosensei, I don't have language abilities like that." Isogai spoke as he's looking at Gakushuu who's talking to the French and Portuguese guy in their different languages. "I don't think my ablities are anywhere near Asano's."
"That is true. Frankly speaking, that's the case." Korosensei replied. "If you had to describe Asano-kun in one word, it would be remarkable. I've never seen a 15 year old with as high level of perfection as he. No matter how multi-talented you may be, if you go out into society, there are definitely people above yourself just like him."
"What do I do? Because of me, if everyone got hurt.."
"But you know, in society, there's a limit to a single person's abilities. The ability to lead and fight with friends. On that point you exceed even Asano-kun." I smiled at Korosensei's words. It's true. Isogai has the power to lead and fight alongside with his friends. He has skills that Asano doesn't have and vice versa. But one thing Isogai and Gakushuu both have yet different style is leadership. Gakushuu's more on orders and thinks of himself more than his members while Isogai takes care of his men well. I decided to leave them for a while and move towards the foreign men to give them a good luck.
"C'est un plaisir de vous revoir, Sayuri." (It's nice to see you again, Sayuri.) The French guy greeted me as I walk towards them. I can't seem to remember their names. Meh, nevermind.
"Bonjour." (Hello.) I smiled. "Je voulais juste te souhaiter bonne chance." (I just wanted to say good luck to you.)
"Je vous remercie." (Thank you.) I then walk towards the Portguese with a smile.
"Boa sorte e seja cauteloso." (Good luck and be careful.) I said.
"Obrigado, Sayuri." (Thank you Sayuri.) He smiled back. I decided not to talk to the Korean guy since I only knew some basic words.
"Yu-chan." Gakushuu greeted with a smirk. "Are your classmates ready to lose?"
"No not at all." I replied with my sweetest smile. "They have couple of strategies to show to you later on."
"I doubt that." I pat his shoulder then whispered beside his ear.
"You won't be tasting victory this time, Ga-kun~! Instincts never fail me and you always know that." I step back then walk out.
I feel victorious. Heh.
"Sayuri-chan! You're so good in different languages!" Kurahashi exlclaimed. "When did you start learning those?"
"Ahh, I learned speaking different languages since I was 11. We used to travel a lot so I have to study different languages." That's actually a lie. I've been studying because of my missions. We never go out of the country. Mom and Dad are always busy so is Nee-chan and I. It's fun learning languages since it's really handful when you're out of the country.
"Both teams line up!"
"The game is starting!" I exclaimed happily while seating next to Kayano.
"You look so confident today." Rio pointed out.
"Of course! Class E's going to win."
"How could you say so?"
Assassin. "Instincts." I giggled. I didn't realize the game is about to start.
"Yana-chan, could you grab me some popcorn?" I asked on a white haired female who's standing behind me.
"O-Oh. Sure!" She grab a bucket of popcorn not far from her and pass it to me.
"Thanks!" I munch on the cheesy popcorn while watching the fight.
"Hohoho! This is fun!" The girls sweat dropped at my sudden actions.
"She's hyped up huh?"
"What's gotten into her?"
Should I narrate what happen to the event?
A lot has happened in just minutes.
While everyone has their ups and downs emotions, I still wore my super confident expression. Whenever I'm like this, I knew it will happen. I'm a trained assassin after all.
To make the long story short, Class E has made the entire grounds a battlefield. Running through chairs, jumping around the bars. Typical. They have lots of strategies too. Gakushuu didn't realize that two of our classmates who first attack was only a diversion. They're already nearing towards the opponent's pole. All of them started running towards the Class A's pole. Reinforcements are coming and Isogai helped them to jump over. Terasaka and Takebayashi are the last two persons carrying the pole up.
In the end, Itona jump over Isogai with the help of his hands and push Itona upwards. The pole fell and everyone cheered.
I expected it already so it's not a surprise.
Before congratulating my classmates, I first went to my childhood best friend who's eyes are in despair. I'm pretty sure Uncle would give him a hard time again.
"Ga-kun..." He looked at me with shocked eyes. He still couldn't believe it huh? He never experience getting defeated by anyone below him.
"We lost...?" I knelt down beside him and held his hand.
"Don't look at it as a wrong way. Use it as your weapon on the next fight." I slightly smiled at him. "Though, I believe you have to explain this to your father."
"Y-You have to come with me!" He held my hand tightly. He's shaking so I tried to comfort him.
"I'll go with you. Now calm down. Breathe..." I look over my classmates who are still cheering for victory. I notice Karma looking at me. I smiled sadly at him.
'I'll be back.' I mouthed those words. He's debating whether to allow me or not but I already move away from them with Gakushuu and the 4 foreigners.
"Whatever happens, I'm here." He simply nodded. I knock on the door twice before entering the office. Me and Gakushuu bowed as a greeting while he just sat there looking at us.
"You are a failure as a leader." He started. I grab Gakushuu's hand while worriedly looking at him. His head is hung low as Uncle explain all the things that is meaningless for me.
"You're wrong there Mr. Chairman!" One of the foreigner guy stood in front. Oh. He could speak our language!? How there they use a different language!? For show off huh??
Wait.. I shouldn't be thinking of that right now.
"Let's have one match. All 4 of you at once." I look at him in disbelief. Great. What now?
My eyes widened but soon relax as he started kicking the 4 guys easily without breaking a sweat.Blood scattered everywhere. I actually miss this kind of sensation.
I could feel my hands shaking because of Gakushuu who's starting to feel fear.
I'm already used to this kinds of situations. It's normal for me.
"Hey, Asano-kun." He looked at us dead in the eye.
"Even though you lost, why aren't you frustrated enough to be in the brink of death?"
What a manipulative monster.
